The balanced chemical equation for the reaction between hydrogen peroxide (H₂O₂) and manganese dioxide (MnO₂) is:
A. H₂O₂ + MnO₂ → Mn(OH)₂ + O₂
B. 2H₂O₂ + MnO₂ → Mn(OH)₂ + O₂
C. H₂O₂ + MnO₂ → MnO + H₂O + O₂
D. 2H₂O₂ + MnO₂ → MnO + H₂O + O₂
The balanced equation is 2H₂O₂ + MnO₂ → Mn(OH)₂ + O₂ representing the reaction between hydrogen peroxide and manganese dioxide.
